Installation Instructions

Venting System For

Pellet and Corn Stoves

A MAJOR CAUSE OF VENT RELATED FIRES IS FAILURE

TO MAINTAIN REQUIRED CLEARANCES (AIR SPACES) TO

COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS. IT IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE

THAT DOUBLE WALL PELLET VENT BE INSTALLED ONLY IN

ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

NOTE:

Read through all of these instructions before beginning your

installation. Failure to install as described in this instruction will

void the manufacturer’s warranty, and may have an effect on your

homeowner’s insurance and UL listing status. Keep these instructions

for future reference. This booklet also contains instructions for

installing a venting system within an existing masonry chimney, and for

installations passing through a cathedral ceiling.

MH14420

CLEARANCES AND APPLICATIONS

Simpson Dura-Vent's PelletVent Pro is listed

by Underwriters Laboratories as vent for listed

oil-, pellet-, and corn-burning appliances.

PelletVent Pro is also listed as a masonry

reliner, in which case the minimum clearance is

0" from vent to masonry, and 0" clearance from

the masonry to nearby combustibles. Never ll

any required clearance space with insulation

or any other materials. Combustible materials

include (but are not limited to) lumber, plywood,

sheetrock, plaster and lath, furniture, curtains,

electrical wiring, and building insulation of any

kind.

In the United States, the minimum clearance

to combustibles from PelletVent Pro is 1" for

oil-burning, pellet-burning, and corn-burning

applications.

In Canada, the minimum clearance to

combustibles from PelletVent Pro is 1" for oil-

burning applications, and 3" for pellet-burning

and corn-burning applications.

VENT LISTING

PelletVent Pro is listed by Underwriters

Laboratories (listing numbers MH8381 &

MH14420) to the American standard UL 641

Type L Low Temperature Venting Systems, and

is also listed to the Canadian standards ULC

S609 Standard for Low Temperature Vents

Type L and ULC/ORD-C441 Standard for Pellet

Vents.

INSTALLATION NOTES

Proper planning for your PelletVent Pro

installation will result in greater safety,

efciency, and convenience, saving both time

and money. Use only authorized Simpson

Dura-Vent PelletVent Pro listed parts. Do not

install damaged parts.

1. WARNING: When passing through ceilings

and walls, make sure all combustible materials

and building insulation products are a minimum

of 1" from the vent pipe (minimum of 3" in

Canada when used on pellet- or corn-burning

appliances).

When exiting through walls, make sure NFPA

rules are followed for distance from windows

and openings. These rules are shown on page

3. Do not mix and match with other products or

improvised solutions.

4. Practice good workmanship. Sloppy

work could jeopardize your PelletVent Pro

installation.

5. Never use a vent with an inside diameter that

is smaller than the appliance ue outlet.

6. Multistory: Where PelletVent Pro passes

through the ceiling, use Simpson Dura-Vent

Firestop/Support assembly.

7. PelletVent Pro placement: When deciding

the location of your stove and vent, try to

minimize the alteration and reframing of

structural components of the building.

8. Sections of pipe are connected to each

other by pushing them rmly together and

twisting. Screws are not required. If however,

screws are desired, use 1/4"-long sheet metal

screws. Under no circumstances, penetrate

the inner liner with screws.

9. PelletVent Pro does not need nor require

RTV Sealant to be used at joints, but it may

be used if desired. Check with the Appliance

Manufacturer for any additional requirements.

Note: the Appliance Adapter may require

sealant when connecting to the appliance

outlet, and the Adjustable

Length section may

require sealant when connecting to the previous

section to provide a leak-free t

10. Never install single-wall pipe to freestanding

pellet stoves. Single-wall pipe may be

connected to a replace insert, provided it

is inside the replace, and the replace has

completely sealed surroundings.

11. Do not connect B-Vent pipe with aluminum

liners to pellet appliances.

12. Inspections: Using pelletized fuel does not

eliminate the need for inspection and cleaning.

During the heating season, inspect monthly,

and clean at least once a year.

GENERAL INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS

PelletVent Pro is listed with a minimum 1"

clearance to combustibles (3" clearance in

Canada when used on pellet- or corn-burning

appliances). Refer to Table 1 for framing

requirements for Ceiling Supports and Wall

Thimble.

1. Follow the stove/appliance manufacturer’s

instructions.

A. Choose an appliance that is listed by a

recognized testing laboratory.

B. Connect only one ue per appliance.

C. Follow the appliance manufacturer's

instructions and safety manual for maximum

efciency and safety. Overring can damage

the appliance and vent.

2. If the vent exit is on top of the stove

(Figure 1):

A. Place the appliance according to the

manufacturer's instructions.

B. Drop a plumb bob to the center of the

appliance ue outlet and mark center point on

the ceiling, cut a square hole in the ceiling for

the Ceiling Support Firestop Spacer. Refer to

Table 1 for the dimensions of the hole.

C. Connect Appliance Adapter to stove: Due

to the variety of different stove collars, the

Appliance Adapter may need high-temperature

non-hardening sealant in order to achieve a

leak-free connection. .

D. Connect Pipe sections. Attach PelletVent

Pro pipe sections by pushing male and female

ends of pipe together and twisting until pipe is

in locked position. PelletVent Pro pipe sections

do not require any sealant. Screws are not

needed, but 1/4" screws can be used if desired,

however, be sure you do not penetrate the

inner liner.

E. When the pipe passes through the Ceiling

Support Firestop Spacer at ceiling, tighten bolt

and clamp around pipe.

F. ALWAYS MAINTAIN AT LEAST 1"

CLEARANCE FROM COMBUSTIBLE

MATERIALS (3" clearance in Canada

when installed on pellet- and corn-burning

appliances). Where the vent passes through

additional oors and ceilings, always install a

Ceiling Support Firestop Spacer.

G. When the PelletVent Pro enters the Attic,

install an Attic Insulation Shield around the vent

(Figures 1 & 3). This will prevent insulation

and debris from collecting near the vent pipe.

Use (4) wood screws to secure the base of the

Attic Insulation Shield to the framed opening.

Adjust the height of the Attic Insulation Shield

by sliding the top cylindrical shield over the one

from the base. Insure that the top of the Shield

is above the level of building insulation. Secure

the Shield in place with at least two (2) sheet

metal screws through the side of the cylindrical

shield. Attach collar around the top of the Attic

Insulaiton shield.

H. After lining up for the hole in roof, using the

same method as 2.(B), cut either a round or

square hole in the roof. Always cut the hole

with the proper clearance to combustibles.

Install the upper edge and sides of Flashing

under the roong materials and nail to the roof

along the upper edge. Do not nail across the

lower edge. Seal all nail heads with non-

hardening waterproof sealant.

I. To nish, apply non-hardening waterproof

sealant where the Storm Collar will meet the

vent and Flashing; slide Storm Collar down until

it sets on the Flashing, put the Cap on and twist

to lock (Figure 2).

A. Place the appliance according to the

manufacturer’s instructions.

B. Connect an Appliance Adapter to the back

of the stove and attach a Tee to Appliance

Adapter, align, push together and twist to lock.

C. Continue to assemble pipe as described in

Step 2.

4. If the ue exit is on the back of stove, and an

exterior vertical installation is desired (Figure

4):

A. Place the appliance according to

manufacturer’s instructions.

B. Cut and frame a square opening in the wall

as specied in Table 1. The black portion of

the Wall Thimble is to be attached to the interior

wall, and the unpainted portion is to be attached

to the exterior wall. The Wall Thimble adjusts to

t walls from 3"-8" thick (Figure 5).

C. Connect an Appliance Adapter to back of

stove; attach pipe to penetrate wall so vertical

section from Tee will be 3" from the exterior of

the wall. Attach a Single Tee or a Double Tee

with Clean-Out Adapter, and proceed up the

wall. Attach an Adjustable Wall Strap just above

the tee. Wall Straps (adjustable from 1"-3"

clearance, also offered in xed clearance 1"

non adjustable version) must be placed every

4-feet along the vertical run. Assemble pipe

in the same manner described in Step 2 of the

general instructions.

D. Seal the exterior section of the Wall

Thimble to the wall with non-hardening

waterproof sealant. As an option, you may

also seal the gap between the pipe and Wall

Thimble with sealant.

Adapter using an Appliance Adapter, lengths

of pipe as required, and an Adjustable Length

pipe. Slide the Adjustable Length down over

the top pipe section, position the installation

vertically plumb, then slip the Adjustable Length

up and twist lock it to the Chimney Adapter.

Once all the components are rmly seated

and properly aligned, carefully drill three 1/8"

diameter holes through the outer sleeve only in

the center of the slots located at the bottom of

the Adjustable Length pipe. Do not penetrate

the inner liner. Use (3) 1/4" length sheet

metal

screws to secure the Adjustable Length pipe.

The completed installation will look like Figure 7.

INSTALLATION INTO A

MASONRY FIREPLACE

1. Have the masonry chimney inspected

by a certied chimney sweep or installer, to

determine it’s structural condition.

2. Carefully read the pellet stove or insert

installation instructions.

3. Measure and record the dimensions as

shown in Figure 8.

4. Use dimension "A" to determine total pipe

requirements. Add 12 additional inches to

insure the termination is an adequate distance

above the rooine.

5. The gross pipe required will be “A” dimension

plus 12 inches. Five feet of this will be Flex

Pipe. The remainder will be rigid pipe. For

each joint, subtract 1-1/2 inches to allow for

the overlap. You may need extra pipe, or an

adjustable length pipe section to achieve the

correct height.

6. Assemble the rst rigid pipe section to the

Flex Pipe, insuring that the "UP" arrows shown

Figure 8

Figure 9

12 INCHES TO

END OF PIPE

on the pipe labels are, in fact, pointing up. Push

the sections together and twist to lock. Screws

are not required for a rm lock, however, should

it be desired to use them, use stainless steel

sheet metal screws 1/4-inch long - do not

penetrate the inner liner of the pipe.

7. Repeat this process for the remainder of the

pipe sections, and lower the assembly down

the chimney as shown in Figure 9. Lower it

below its normal position in order to connect the

Flex Pipe to the pipe on the appliance. It may

be necessary to tie a line to the top section, to

pull it back up later.

In making the connection at the appliance,

congurations other than the one shown in

Figure 10

may be made. It may be necessary

to contact the manufacturer of the unit to

determine exactly what may or may not be

done to make the correct connection. Some

typical arrangements are shown in Figures 11

and 12. An Appliance Adapter may be needed,

depending on the exit size of the stove or insert

collar.

9. If a Tee is necessary to make the

connection, as shown in Figure 12, the Tee

has a removable Clean Out Adapter on its base

to enable cleaning. The Tee Support Bracket

to hold the Tee to the rear of the appliance

is mandatory. If it is desired to mount the

Tee Support to the rear of the stove, obtain

approval from the manufacturer of the stove

before drilling, tapping, or performing any other

alterations to the appliance.

10. Connect the appliance to the coupling on

the bottom of the Flex Pipe, by twisting to the

locked position. Push the appliance into the

replace to its nal resting place. Go to the top

of the chimney and pull the vent system up to

it’s desired height.

11. For the termination of the pellet vent, you

will use a Tall Cone Flashing, and a Storm

Collar. This will require 14 inches of pipe above

for installation in an existing masonry chimney

with the exceptions listed:

A. No Flex Pipe is required, unless the masonry

chimney has an offset. If an offset exists,

then a section of Flex Pipe will be needed to

accommodate the offset.

B. A Tee is installed at the bottom end of the

vertical pipe (Figure 16).

C. A Reduction Collar or a Trim Collar is

required to go around the pipe section that

passes through the masonry to give it a nished

look (Figure 16).

3. It will be necessary to break out the masonry

around the location of the pipe center line mark

to a diameter of at least 4 inches for 3 inch

pipe, and at least 5 inches in diameter for 4

inch pipe.

4. Install the Tee on the bottom of the vertical

pipe system and lower it down the chimney until

the center of the branch of the Tee is level with

the center of the hole in the masonry. Connect

horizontal pipe section to the Tee branch.

5. Holding the pipe at the proper elevation,

install the Storm Collar and Cap, as described

in Step 11 for the replace installation.

6. Connect the horizontal piece of pipe which

goes through the masonry to the Tee by

pushing it through the hole in the masonry, and

lining it up with the branch of the Tee. Then

push it into the Tee, while twisting to lock it.

7. Once the horizontal pipe section is in place,

the space between the pipe and the masonry

may be lled with high temperature grout, as

shown in Figure 17, if desired.

8. Install the Reduction Collar or Trim Collar, the

90° Elbow, and the vertical pipe section going

to the appliance. An Adjustable Pipe length will

probably be needed, as well as an Appliance

Adapter.

9. Conduct a nal inspection of the entire job, and

review the manufacturer's operating and installation

instructions once more, before ring the appliance.

INSTALLATION IN A

CATHEDRAL CEILING

1. Mark a line on the side of the Cathedral

Ceiling Support Box to correspond to the line of

the roof pitch, as shown in Figure 18. Allow for

the Support Box to protrude below the low side

of the nished ceiling a minimum of 2 inches.

2. Position the appliance at its proper

location on the oor. Pay close attention to

the manufacturer's installation instructions

regarding the distances from combustibles, etc.

The appliance must also be positioned so the

Support Box will not interfere with roof rafters or

other structural framing.

3. Run a plumb line from the center of the ue

exit on the stove to the ceiling. Mark the point

on the ceiling where the plumb line intersects.

This represents the center of the support box.

Drill a small hole through the ceiling at this

point, so it can be located from the top of the

roof.

4. From the roof, locate and mark the outline of

the Support Box.

5. Remove shingles or other roof covering as

necessary to cut the rectangular hole for the

Support Box. Cut the hole 1/8-inch larger than

the dimensions of the Support Box. (Figure 19).

The rectangular hole should be centered on the

Figure 18

Figure 19

Figure 20

Figure 21

small hole which you drilled through the ceiling

to mark the location. Again, verify that you are

not cutting through rafters or framing members.

6. Run the Support Box through the roof as

shown in Figure 20, and place it so that the

bottom of the Support Box protrudes at least

2 inches below the nished ceiling. Align the

Support Box vertically and horizontally with

a level. Temporarily tack the Support Box in

place through the inside walls and into the roof

sheathing.

7. Using tin snips, cut the Support Box from the

top corners down to the roof line, and fold the

resulting ap over the roof sheathing (Figure

21). Before nailing it to the roof, run a bead of

non-hardening sealant around the outside top

edges of the Support Box so as to make a seal

between the box and the roof. Clean out any

combustible material or debris from inside the

Support Box.

8. Place the Pipe Clamp, (which comes as a

component of the Support Box) around the top

of the hole in the bottom of the Support Box

(Figure 23).

9. Connect the necessary amount of pipe

sections to reach the stove at a point where the

Cap will be at least 12-inches above the roof

(Figure 22).

10. Run the assembled pieces of pellet vent

pipe down through the Clamp of the Support

Box and connect to the appliance with an

Appliance Adapter. Using a level, make slight

adjustments in the position of the appliance until

the pipe is truly vertical. Tighten the bolts in the

Clamp. Note that the overall length of the pellet

vent pipe as assembled, can be no longer than

42 feet.

11. Slip the Flashing over the pipe section(s)

protruding through the roof. Secure the base to

the roof with roong nails as shown in Figure

24. Insure that the roong material overlaps the

top edge of the Flashing (Refer to Figure 2).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1. Have your system cleaned by a certied

chimney sweep if you have doubts about your

ability to clean it. Use a plastic or exible steel

brush. Do not use a stiff brush that will scratch

the stainless steel liner of your system.

2. PelletVent Pro systems must be installed

so that access is provided for inspection and

cleaning.

3. The pellet vent should be inspected at least

once every month during the heating season.

4. Do not use chemical cleaners. They can

damage the vent pipe.

5. To increase pellet vent life, coat all exterior

metal parts with high temperature, rustproof

paint. This is highly recommended, particularly in

areas near the ocean.

6. In case of a chimney re, close all appliance

draft openings, shut off pellet appliance and call

your Fire Department. Do not use the appliance

or vent until it has been inspected for possible

damage.
